I guess people have a problem starting with 800 T-chips? I don't mind it since everyone starts w/ the same amount. In comparison to 'Stars, I feel like more chips equate to a longer tournament. Who the hell wants to be sitting at a one table SnG for an hour or more? For me, it cuts down on my win/hr ratio.

If party would have fpps
I think that if party would have fpps, I wouldn't come out of the S&Gs. Increasing the chips from 800 to 1000 would even even better.

My 2 cents
More chance to play poker..... Less chance to have to go all-in.
Example... 13th hand of a party poker SNG ChipCount 770(you played no hands and folded blinds) You are dealt Ac-As You raise to 200. (5 times the current bb) Of course 2 callers Flop comes Ad-9-d-2d Checked to you.... you bet 220... Of course 2 callers (stupid people calling when you don't want them to on Party!)  Turn Ad-9d-2d-7d first caller bets 250. do you call? I curse my luck and fold.... Can't be helped, cards were bad that hand. Let's check and see where we are at now.... Oh crap Down to 350 in chips. Crap.... I may get lucky and see a cheap flop or 2, but I am basically pot-committed to anything now.... The Moral of this story is.... With 1500 chips to start(down to T1050 now after this example hand), there is more of a chance to play good poker. |

James, you're absolutely right. I play at my girlfriend's house against her brother and his buddies, they are increasing blinds every 15 minutes. By about the 1 hour mark you have to go all-in just to see a flop. Absolutely retarded structure and next time I play I'll make sure they know it.

Just so everyone is clear....
I am James... I had to point this out because I live with my fiance, and it is very very very very very rare that I ever hear the words....... "James, you're absolutely right." Thanks Geoff, I needed that
